Bob and Heather have been sharing the love of God at the Haven of Peace Academy (HOPAC) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania since 2012. HOPAC is an International Christian School “dedicated to nurturing children in knowledge and the love of God and providing a Christ-centered community.” The school was founded in 1994 by five missionary families looking to provide long-term quality education for their children and other missionary families. It has now expanded to serve children from over 40 different nationalities with the majority coming from non-Christian homes.

Bob and Heather have also partnered with Father Heart Tanzania to provide local outreach for over 300 disadvantaged children living within the rock quarry behind the Haven of Peace Academy. Their main focus is the Kidz Klub of Salasala which uses sports, play, and bible studies to create an environment where these children can grow “physically, emotionally, spiritually and intellectually”.

The Peterson’s also serve as “house parents” at The Haven, International Christian Boarding located beside HOPAC’s campus.

Bruce and Becky McDonald have dedicated themselves to spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ and training pastors in the most remote and difficult areas of the world. This includes the deserts of Northern Africa, the jungles of the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi, the ancient tribes of Ethiopia, the struggling nations of the former Soviet Union and the emerging cities of India. Since moving into the field in 1990 and establishing Regions Beyond International, Bruce and Becky have ministered on four continents, reaching millions of lost souls.
